About the role

Elevation Scholars seeks an entrepreneurial, mission-driven Executive Director to lead strategic growth, fundraising, and stakeholder engagement. You will oversee a high-impact team, partner with the board, and strengthen collaborations with universities and school districts to expand access for high-need scholars. The role requires a proven track record in fundraising, organizational leadership, and building durable partnerships.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
